June 18, 1864

NEW YORK HERALD, June 18, 1864  

* Second Battle of Petersburg
* Ulysses S. Grant vs. Robert E. Lee
* Gettysburg two week away


The front page is highlighted by a very nice & detailed street view map headed: "THE TOWN OF PETERSBURG".
Also great column heads: "GRANT" "Petersburg In Our Hands" "Rebel Intrenchments Attacked & Captured" "Capture of Artillery & Prisoners" "Six Guns...Captured by the Colored Troops" and more inside.
Included is a single sheet Supplement which features a huge map headed: "GRANT'S NEW BASE OF OPERATION - Petersburg & Its Importance to Richmond...". Curiously the reverse of the Supplement is identical to the front.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
